Mystery in White: A Christmas Crime Story (British Library Crime Classics) - Softcover
Synopsis
'The horror on the train, great though it may turn out to be, will not compare with the horror that exists here, in this house.' On Christmas Eve, heavy snowfall brings a train to a halt near the village of Hemmersby. Several passengers take shelter in a deserted country house, where the fire has been lit and the table laid for tea - but no one is at home. Trapped together for Christmas, the passengers are seeking to unravel the secrets of the empty house when a murderer strikes in their midst.

Review
Age has not diminished this wintry tale ... By the time the storm ends, four people will have been murdered, and the survivors, not the police, will deliver justice in the satisfying ending. --Publishers Weekly
Mystery In White is the perfect book for a winter's evening, a cosy chair and an open fire. --Daily Mail

Sayers wrote that 'Jefferson Farjeon is quite unsurpassed for creepy skill in mysterious adventures'. Farjeon is now best known as the author of Number Seventeen, a play that was adapted for the big screen by Alfred Hitchcock.
